	I have only recently acquired a PC and am trying to get to grips
with the lack of functionality of DOS compared with Unix, VAX/VMS etc :-(

	Question : I want to read in a value in a BATch file and then make a
decision based on that value. E.g., in pseudo-code :

	.
	.
	.
ECHO Do you want to do a backup, ANSWER$
IF ANSWER$ = "N" THEN GOTO nobackup
PAUSE Place a backup disk in drive A:
BACKUP C:\*.* A:
:nobackup
	.
	.
	.

	Reading through the manuals I can find no way of doing this. Have I
missed something, or is it not possible (in which case I suppose I need to
write a C/Pascal/BASIC program to do it).

	Thanks in advance for any help.
